Frequently asked questions
What’s the adventure here?
You arrive in Savannah chasing dreams, end up working at a pirate-filled restaurant, catch a glimpse of a treasure map... and suddenly you're “invited” aboard as pirate crew! You’ll solve clues, explore waterfront secrets, and try to escape—or embrace life as a pirate.
Who’s going to love this most?
It’s great for adventurous couples, friend groups who like playful challenges, and visitors who want more than just old houses and coffee—something with a little swagger.
Is this a good idea for a date?
For sure. There’s romance in the waterfront, sunsets, pirate tales, hidden alleys, and that “let’s do something outside the usual” energy—perfect for a date with personality.
Can friends do this and have fun together?
Absolutely. It’s built to be laughed over, to compare notes when you’re stuck, to tease each other for missing clues. A cool group activity.
Is it family-friendly / ok with kids?
Yes, with some guidance. Kids under 12 should be with parents. Older kids who love stories or pirate myths will dig it. Daytime play is better for little ones.
Is it worth the cost?
For what you get—stories, walking, adventure, waterfront views—it delivers. Especially if you share with someone or two, it becomes a memory, not just a walk.
